All our British friends and family back home just don’t know the utter joy of finding a toonie down the back of the Chesterfield, jumping on a streetcar to head into the nearest Timmy’s, checking that the white crayon time is new on the steaming pot of coffee and declaring that you want a Double Double and 10 Timbits.

Soon they will be able to as … Tim Hortons is heading to the UK. What a glorious time to be alive!

Not sure if they’ll do RRRoll Up The Rim too and other promos, but Brits love to enter competitions so we hope they will. (Tims, if you’re reading this free advertising promo blog post for your company, please offer flights to Toronto/Canada as a prize so the fam can come and visit, cheers!)

“‘What is changing is that the Government of Canada is implementing a new electronic system to assist airlines in verifying that all travellers have the appropriate documents to travel to or transit through Canada by air,’ Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada spokesperson Lindsay Wemp told Torstar News Service.

“‘Air carriers are obligated by law to confirm that all persons seeking to travel to Canada carry both proof of citizenship and proof of identity. A valid Canadian passport satisfies these requirements for Canadian citizens, and is the only acceptable travel document for the purpose of air travel.’

“Currently, Canadian citizens with dual citizenships can use the passport of the other country to enter Canada by air if they can provide proofs of residency in Canada, such as a driver’s licence and Canadian citizenship card.”
